CkCreateCS Java Reference Documentation

CkCreateCS

Current Version: 9.5.0.98

Factory class for creating certificate store objects.

This class is specific to the Windows operating system, and therefore is only available on Windows systems.

Object Creation

CkCreateCS obj = new CkCreateCS();

Properties

DebugLogFilePath
void get_DebugLogFilePath(CkString str);
String debugLogFilePath();
void put_DebugLogFilePath(String newVal);

If set to a file path, causes each Chilkat method or property call to automatically append it's LastErrorText to the specified log file. The information is appended such that if a hang or crash occurs, it is possible to see the context in which the problem occurred, as well as a history of all Chilkat calls up to the point of the problem. The VerboseLogging property can be set to provide more detailed information.

This property is typically used for debugging the rare cases where a Chilkat method call hangs or generates an exception that halts program execution (i.e. crashes). A hang or crash should generally never happen. The typical causes of a hang are:

  1. a timeout related property was set to 0 to explicitly indicate that an infinite timeout is desired,
  2. the hang is actually a hang within an event callback (i.e. it is a hang within the application code), or
  3. there is an internal problem (bug) in the Chilkat code that causes the hang.

top
LastErrorHtml
void get_LastErrorHtml(CkString str);
String lastErrorHtml();

Provides information in HTML format about the last method/property called. If a method call returns a value indicating failure, or behaves unexpectedly, examine this property to get more information.

top
LastErrorText
void get_LastErrorText(CkString str);
String lastErrorText();

Provides information in plain-text format about the last method/property called. If a method call returns a value indicating failure, or behaves unexpectedly, examine this property to get more information.

top
LastErrorXml
void get_LastErrorXml(CkString str);
String lastErrorXml();

Provides information in XML format about the last method/property called. If a method call returns a value indicating failure, or behaves unexpectedly, examine this property to get more information.

top
LastMethodSuccess
boolean get_LastMethodSuccess();
void put_LastMethodSuccess(boolean newVal);

Indicate whether the last method call succeeded or failed. A value of true indicates success, a value of false indicates failure. This property is automatically set for method calls. It is not modified by property accesses. The property is automatically set to indicate success for the following types of method calls:

  • Any method that returns a string.
  • Any method returning a Chilkat object, binary bytes, or a date/time.
  • Any method returning a standard boolean status value where success = true and failure = false.
  • Any method returning an integer where failure is defined by a return value less than zero.

Note: Methods that do not fit the above requirements will always set this property equal to true. For example, a method that returns no value (such as a "void" in C++) will technically always succeed.

top
ReadOnly
boolean get_ReadOnly();
void put_ReadOnly(boolean newVal);

Determines whether certificate stores are opened with read-only or read/write permissions. Only applies to methods such as OpenCurrentUserStore, where the a readOnly parameter is not present.

top
VerboseLogging
boolean get_VerboseLogging();
void put_VerboseLogging(boolean newVal);

If set to true, then the contents of LastErrorText (or LastErrorXml, or LastErrorHtml) may contain more verbose information. The default value is false. Verbose logging should only be used for debugging. The potentially large quantity of logged information may adversely affect peformance.

top
Version
void get_Version(CkString str);
String version();

Version of the component/library, such as "9.5.0.94"

Methods

CreateFileStore
CkCertStore CreateFileStore(String path);

Creates a file-based certificate store. If 'filename' already exists, the method will fail.

Returns nil on failure

top
CreateMemoryStore
CkCertStore CreateMemoryStore();

Creates a temporary certificate store in memory that is initially empty.

Returns nil on failure

top
CreateRegistryStore
CkCertStore CreateRegistryStore(String regRoot, String regPath);

Creates a registry-based certificate store. The 'hiveName' can either be "CurrentUser" or "LocalMachine". The 'regPath' argument should be specified without a leading slash, such as "Software/Chilkat/MyCertStore".

Returns nil on failure

top
OpenChilkatStore
CkCertStore OpenChilkatStore();

Opens the certificate store used by Chilkat Mail and returns the object representing that store.

Returns nil on failure

top
OpenCurrentUserStore
CkCertStore OpenCurrentUserStore();

Opens the local system's Current User Certificate Store and returns the object representing that store.

Returns nil on failure

top
OpenFileStore
CkCertStore OpenFileStore(String path);

Opens an existing file certificate store. To open it read-only, readOnly should be non-zero.

Returns nil on failure

top
OpenLocalSystemStore
CkCertStore OpenLocalSystemStore();

Opens the local system's Local Machine Certificate Store and returns the object representing that store.

Returns nil on failure

top
OpenOutlookStore
CkCertStore OpenOutlookStore();

Opens the certificate store used by Microsoft Outlook (and Office) and returns the object representing that store.

Returns nil on failure

top
OpenRegistryStore
CkCertStore OpenRegistryStore(String regRoot, String regPath);

Opens an existing registry-based certificate store. 'hiveName' should be either "CurrentUser" or "LocalMachine". The 'regPath' argument should be specified without a leading slash, such as "Software/Chilkat/MyCertStore".

Returns nil on failure
